An ape is reminiscing about its life in the jungle. At the zoo it meets a manager and his daughter, who is a great fan of animals. The manager is barely able to do his work on his mobile phone and laptop, while the orangutan and the girl both have a lot of fun together. A chain of chance events changes its caged life forever.
